Thomas Mann Archives

Frommer's Review

Thomas Mann, the German writer who won the Nobel Prize for literature in 1929 for such works as Death in Venice and The Magic Mountain, died in Kilchberg, near Zurich, in 1955. An opponent of the Nazi regime, he had lived outside Germany after 1933 -- in the United States and Switzerland during most of the period. The archives, located next to the university, contain manuscripts and mementos.
